How can I delete the drop down history in the search field?

How do I delete the recent history in the drop down search window? thanks, Jim C?

  • I have deleted cookies and internet history to no avail

  • Answer:

    Tools > Internet Options > Content > AutoComplete > Clear Forms. This will clear out ALL your autocompleted forms, such as search windows, form fill-ins, etc. You can also reset your Auto-Complete options here. Or, to delete just a single (or a few) searches, just have them highlighted in the drop-down list and hit DELETE -- they will vanish! If you hold down the key, the whole drop-down list of searches will delete. If you are using the Yahoo! Toolbar, I believe there is a drop-down box at the end of the search window that has the option to CLEAR SEARCHES on it. Clearing your history only clears out the PAGE locations that you have recently visited.

I click on the history sign up top. It looks like a clock with an arrow pointing backward. then when the window drops I right click the day or week I want to delete and then hit delete. Then yes and it is gone from there. Now I have been told that it is still in your computer some where but I don't think you can delete it completely.
